You know, if their whole issue with makign use of GPL as a currency is that players have a massive stockpile of it, why not make some of these special missions GPL based?


I'd love to finally have a use for the crap.

You know, something I've always wondered about is just how some people got so much GPL considering what a useless currency it is, and what a boring, pointless game Dabo is.

It's kinda like whizzing your ECs - a useful currency - against the wall.

Do people actually find some amusment in selecting random combinations of numbers and hoping they roll the "Hard Six"?

Gambling is pretty popular in the real world. So obviously yes.

They could have A Ferengi trader be available for the stations as a project like they do with the science, tac, and engineering officers. Once he is available, it opens up projects that involve GPL, like a dabo table or reduced purchase prices on gear.

More limited time projects for big fleets great. Not all of us are in huge 500 member fleets many have under a dozen members. Why can't you scale the project determined by how many accounts are in a fleet?

Support the small fleets too.

Oh also could you fix your news page, no images how up in the blogs. Thanks.

I'm sorry, I'm pretty amused by your typos / profanity filter interception here!


But anyhow, it *would* be nice if Starbase projects used more types of inputs to construct. GPL is a good idea, as are other lesser used items. I see Starbases as being a good method to control inflation.

My fleet got stuck with that stupid Refugee mission, we can't swap it unfortunately.

I keep seeing people concerned about the two week window of completing their current special project AND this one but the way I was reading it... you only need to START the project in this two week window and can then work on it for as long as you like

I wouldn't be too concerned as I'm sure these may be repeated (hopefully) in the future for new fleets / fleets that missed out

You then get backed up with the special project following it though. You can only run one of them at a time. Push the first one back and you'll start pushing them all back until you lose one.

edit: I have to admit that I only run a single character with a klingon that I haven't played on months (I can't deal with the red UI. Get headaches in under five minutes from it) I hadn't been using any dil farming or contraband dumping alts. That personal policy just got changed.

If I'm paying for plants on the starbase they better not be plastic. I want to see some of those useless npc squatters watering them.
